Intimate partner violence : experiences of women with disabilities in Canada, 2018 / by Laura Savage.: CS85-002/41-6E-PDF

"Using self-reported data from the 2018 Survey of Safety in Public and Private Spaces (SSPPS), this report builds on previous findings of intimate partner violence (IPV) with a specific focus on the experiences of women with disabilities. Where possible, analysis will be conducted on the co-occurrence of disability across four categories: sensory (hearing or visual); physical (flexibility, mobility, dexterity, pain); cognitive (developmental, learning, memory); and mental health-related disability. This report explores the prevalence, nature, and impact of IPV on Canadians, taking into account experiences of IPV in one's lifetime (since age 15), as well as in the 12 months preceding the survey. This report is one in a series of reports highlighting the experiences of intimate partner violence among various populations based on data from the SSPPS. The other reports in this series focus on the experiences of women (Cotter 2021a), Indigenous women (Heidinger 2021), sexual minority women (Jaffray 2021a) and men (Jaffray 2021b), young women (Savage 2021b), and ethno-cultural minority women (Cotter 2021b)"--Page 3.
